DESIGNED TO PERFORM
KARNDEAN’S COMMERCIAL DESIGN FLOORING REPLICATES BEAUTIFUL NATURAL MATERIALS
WITHOUT THEIR PRACTICAL DRAWBACKS. FAR REACHING BENEFITS ENSURE SUITABILITY FOR
WIDE-RANGING APPLICATIONS; NATURALLY, WE OFFER EVERYTHING OUR CUSTOMERS DEMAND.
EVERY PRODUCT CARRIES A GENERIC BRE GLOBAL GREEN GUIDE RATING OF A/A+ DEPENDING
ON THE APPLICATION OF SPECIFICATION*, IS CERTIFIED AS LOW VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS
(VOC) AND IS MANUFACTURED TO THE ISO 14001 AND ISO 9001 STANDARDS.
THE BENEFITS OF NATURAL MATERIALS –
WITHOUT THE DRAWBACKS
Inspired by nature, the passion, innovation
and experience running through our company
positions Karndean as a world leader in
replicating the look and feel of natural flooring
materials, supporting your interior design
vision.
Versatility is one of our greatest strengths and
our products can be used in almost any interior
environment. Being thinner and lighter than
natural alternatives means they can often be
installed where natural products can’t. Lower
weight than ceramics, stone and wood also
makes Karndean tiles and planks easier to
install, with fewer health and safety
implications.
There are the favourable Life Cycle Assessment
costs too, thanks to using polymers that
require less manufacturing energy than other
materials – and an easy maintenance regime
using 100%-biodegradable surfactants.
What’s more, Karndean products can be
installed faster than natural materials,
meaning reduced downtime. Our customers
appreciate how our products can be used to
create unique designs with decorative strips
and bespoke features – including inbuilt
company logos. Where highly-skilled
tradespeople would take a long time crafting
these from natural materials, Karndean
manufactures them offsite for quicker
installation.
A COMPREHENSIVE GUARANTEE
For complete peace of mind, every product
comes with a comprehensive guarantee.

KARNDEAN FOR
RETAIL
A WELL-DESIGNED RETAIL ENVIRONMENT BOOSTS PROFIT.
WHEN APPEARANCE COUNTS, FLOORS MUST BE MORE THAN
JUST SURFACES TO WALK ON. USE A COMBINATION OF PRODUCTS

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
INTERIORS THAT BRING CUSTOMERS

its products. Indeed, in today’s ultracompetitive high street, a retailer’s look and
feel is a key differentiator. As experts in flooring
for retail environments, Karndean flooring adds
the finishing touch to interiors that customers
come back to.

SAFETY COMPLIANCE
With many accidents caused by slips and trips,
retail flooring must help you meet your health
and safety obligations. Karndean products
combine consistently high levels of appearance
and practicality with the specifications that
meet wide-ranging safety requirements. It’s
proof that safe flooring can help protect your

High street chic demands a special look and

and cleans up easily for years.

Fast installation and authentic replication of

DEPARTMENT STORES
The wide range of Karndean colours and

different parts of highly trafficked stores.
LEISURE RETAIL
Classic and contemporary designs, durability
and easy cleaning suit leisure retail outlets with
their high footfall and long opening hours.
With heavy footfall and shopping trolleys
providing a demanding environment, high
street retailers need to know that the floor they
choose to install into their stores is going to be
up to the task.
Daily stock deliveries and hundreds of people
through the door have put durability and ease
of maintenance at the top of the agenda for
high street retailer Poundland, when they come
to specify the all important flooring for their
stores.
Providing attractive and practical floor
coverings for the retail sector and beyond,
Karndean’s hard-wearing flooring is now on
Poundland’s shopping list of ‘must-have’
products for the next series of shop fittings.
Opening approximately 65 new stores each
year, Poundland has selected Karndean
commercial design flooring for its two most
recent projects in Andover and Rotherham.
Karndean’s commercial flooring is quick to
install, easy to keep clean and most
importantly, offers highly durable wear layers
to cope with even the busiest of shopping days
for many years to come.
“Karndean’s design flooring was recommended
to us by our shop fitter.” Says Mark Roberts,
head of store development for Poundland.
“We needed a floor covering that would stand
the test of time and look the part in our busy
stores, whilst being easy for our staff to keep
clean - Karndean’s flooring has ticked all of
these boxes and more.”
Karndean were also able to exceed
expectations further by offering a traditional
plank effect floor made to a bespoke colour
specification that perfectly matched
Poundland’s interior design scheme.

Mark continues: “We were really pleased to
discover that Karndean could offer us the floor
covering that we wanted in exactly the right
colour. The bespoke service provided the
perfect solution and the end product matched
our criteria completely.”

and helps create irresistible environments
where clients will want to spend time and

EASY TO CLEAN & HYGIENIC
After another long day it’s reassuring to know
your flooring is easy to clean with our simple
cleaning regime. Unlike many of the materials
it faithfully replicates, Karndean flooring has no

traditional flooring.
DURABILITY
Our flooring, with guarantees of up to 15 years,
is proven in the toughest high-footfall
environments – venues where long hours, hard
wear, knocks and spills are the norm. When
flooring must look great and perform for years,
our leisure clients appreciate the reassurance
of tough wear layers and the comprehensive
data that proves durability.
SAFETY COMPLIANCE
In leisure environments, health & safety
compliance is vital to meet statutory
requirements, avoid legal action, reduce
insurance costs and be seen as a responsible
venue operator. Karndean flooring helps to
avoid trip points and demarcate areas safely –
several products are certified to the recognised
European R10 rating.

HOTELS
From chic boutique accommodation to the
traditional Grand Hotel, Karndean looks, style
and performance enhance the warmest
welcomes.
When it comes to choosing flooring for a
leisure environment such as beauty salons,
specifiers need to strike a balance between
practical considerations and aesthetics.
With bold interior design, hair and beauty
outlets need a floor covering that is tough
enough to withstand footfall, whilst not looking
out of place next to trend-led interior schemes.
Karndean’s Oak Premier wood plank effect
flooring in Midnight Oak finish has a dark,
textured surface that suits the salons dramatic
colour palette. With more salons in the
pipeline, Angelic Rebels plan to use
Karndean’s luxury design flooring as part of
their ongoing shop fittings.
Boutique hair and beauty salon, Angelic Rebels
found the perfect solution for its new Kingstonupon-Thames store with dramatic dark wood
effect flooring from Karndean’s new premium
range, Oak Premier.
Hard-wearing and easy to maintain,
Karndean’s LVT ranges encompass stone,
ceramic and wood effects that are sure to offer
a colour and texture to compliment every kind
of décor. What’s more, Karndean’s flooring
doesn’t have the joins and grouting issues
associated with natural materials, making it
easy to sweep and simple to keep
clean everyday.
“With treatment rooms and a hair washing area
we needed a durable floor.” Says Nicki Moon,
Operations Director for Angelic Rebels: “It
needed to be hard-wearing enough to
withstand the traffic of a busy hair and beauty
salon.”
“Furthermore, we needed a floor covering that
was going to compliment the rest of our
striking décor. It had to be simply fabulous and
add personality to the salon.”

INTERIORS THAT
SUPPORT RECOVERY
Environment matters – whether someone’s
recovering from illness or accident, or coping
with the challenges of ageing. Natural-looking
flooring offers stimulating alternatives to
traditional ‘institutional’ materials –
recuperative environments are easily designed
with your expertise and our product range.
CLEAN & HYGIENIC
From resisting spills to avoiding dust and
mites, Karndean tiles and planks contribute to
cleaner, healthier environments from the day
they’re installed. Our products all carry a low
Volatile Organic Compound rating, and our
adhesives are free of harmful emissions, and
the avoidance of unhealthy dirt-traps between
flooring elements.
DURABLE
Premature repair and refurbishment of flooring
is the last thing patients and staff need in
busy healthcare establishments. With their
faster installation and proven durability,
Karndean products are designed for a long,
low-maintenance life and minimal interference
with daily routines. In waiting rooms and
children’s wards alike, durability and aesthetics
go hand in hand on the road to recovery.
ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE
We believe that caring for the environment goes
with caring for people. Hence our approach to
flooring is based on using recycled materials
and working closely with bodies such as the
Building Research Establishment (our products
hold a generic BRE Global Green Guide A/A+
rating*). We also supply low-VOC water-based
adhesives, biodegradable floor care products,
low-energy polymer manufacturing and
recycled packaging too.

CHILDREN’S WARDS
Safe, soft-touch, easy-to-clean flooring means
one less thing to worry about when children
need special care.
ZONAL DEMARCATION
A range of contrasting products make it easy to
lead patients between departments, distinguish
different areas and guide the visually impaired.
Without the cracks and grouting associated
with natural products, Karndean’s commercial
flooring is a highly hygienic option for hospital
environments as it does not harbour dirt or
germs. It is also extremely easy to maintain
and has a simple yet effective recommended
cleaning routine that has been specially
developed to provide the best finish for the floor.
Having installed Karndean’s floor coverings for
the past 12 years, Sutton Hospital did not need
to look any further when the next series of
refurbishments came around. For the large
reception area American Oak from the Da Vinci
range was selected. The bevelled edges of this
design help to reflect light and define each plank
to enhance the overall atmosphere whilst a
striking Star Feature was also installed to add
an extra element of interest.
The American Oak planks were then laid into the
corridors to keep the flooring scheme consistent
from ward to ward whilst the waiting room
received a more dramatic makeover with
Graphite tiles combined with a metallic silver
design strip, also from the Da Vinci range.
Finally, the Art block of the hospital, where
patients enjoy therapy in inspiring surroundings,
needed something special so Sutton Hospital
chose the unique Catalonian Granite pebble
finish, from the Michelangelo range, as the
unique finish added a real element of interest to
the floor.
With such a varied collection of viable solutions
for the healthcare sector, Karndean’s designs
are guaranteed to offer style and substance
whilst being easy-to-clean in such a hygiene
aware location.

Lots of busy people, heavy footfall and

test any flooring. Karndean products’ tough
wear layers will meet the challenge.
When Preston based RCU, a research and
consultancy service for the education sector,
came to refurbish their office, they needed to
incorporate clever space saving ideas with
storage and an informal meeting space, all
within a modern and engaging environment.
Using Karndean commercial flooring to create
a special design feature which broke up the
open plan space, office refurbishment
specialists Whitespace designed an inviting,
informal meeting area and bistro style kitchen
with modern seating and coffee tables.
Andy Wyn-Jones, Director for Whitespace
comments: “The RCU team needed a multifunctional seating bay that could be used by
staff on their lunch as well as for informal
meetings.”
“The office is spacious and lacked an obvious
flow so we used Karndean flooring to create
an eye-catching feature that would distinguish
between the different areas.”
Using Karndean’s popular Van Gogh range of
wood style floor coverings, Whitespace selected
Burnt Ginger for its unique distressed
appearance and textured surface, RCU now has
a stylish elliptical design flooring which adds
character to the interior of the office and
provides a durable, easy to clean surface.
Andy continues: “Karndean’s flooring
complements the rest of the interior design
and is tough enough to withstand the daily
wear and tear of a busy office.”

Ideal for meeting the demands of bustling
school corridors, day in and day out, luxury vinyl
flooring also meets with the specification needs
of schools today. As the Government continues
to provide local authorities with funds for
schools to invest into the maintenance and
improvement of their grounds, attention is being
paid to interior solutions that not only meet
procurement budgets but also high standards of
quality, longevity and overall finish.
A case in point is Bengeworth First School, in
Evesham, Worcestershire. A larger than average
primary school, they decided to carry out
renovations to improve the overall environment.
When it came to choosing the specific type of
new floor coverings, they had three key
requirements to fulfil: natural finish, hardwearing and swift to install.
Enter Karndean. Their hygienic, durable, quietunderfoot and easy to maintain commercial
design flooring not only offered a wide range of
realistic wood and natural stone finishes, it was
guaranteed to withstand the wear and tear that
schools are subjected to on a daily basis.
The Van Gogh range was chosen as a costeffective and time-efficient option, as the large
plank sizes ensured that the installation would
be complete in time. Limestone tiles from the
Da Vinci range were also fitted into some of the
other classrooms because of the attractive yet
robust finish.
Ticking all the right boxes, the school’s new vinyl
flooring from Karndean has certainly received a
gold star of approval from pupils, teachers and
cleaners alike.

QUALITY FLOORING
HELPS SELL HOMES
Just like stylish bathrooms and kitchens,
beautiful flooring can help clinch home sales.
With dozens of gorgeous tiles, planks and
accessories, the Karndean range has the
perfect product to match any home concept.
INDIVIDUAL
Every home should be different, to reflect
the personality and lifestyle of its occupier. The
wide range of Karndean flooring products and
accessories enables housebuilders to create
individually themed flooring that will delight
clients – and fast installation minimises the
time required to realise the new homeowner’s
dream.
WARM AND QUIET UNDERFOOT
Our flooring does much more than look
wonderful and last for years. Advanced
materials and manufacturing techniques, and
instinctive understanding of designers’ needs,
ensure stunningly realistic flooring that
complements modern building specifications
and technologies such as underfloor heating.
Always warm and quiet underfoot, Karndean
combines new levels of comfort and liveability
with the looks of the natural materials that
inspire it.
DURABLE
Large and small families test their home’s
flooring in different ways. Whether it’s coping
with lots of energetic children, or a household
with pets, Karndean comes with the wear layer
and manufacturing pedigree that puts
industrial-grade durability into any rose cottage
or bachelor pad – without sacrificing
appearance.
EASY TO CLEAN AND HYGIENIC
Busy lifestyles don’t allow much time for
cleaning. Thankfully our flooring is inherently
hygienic and easy-to-clean with a simple
regime and our 100% biodegradable cleaners.
And for even greater long-term protection
against home-life’s scuffs and spills, there’s
our K Guard+ system too.

SOCIAL HOUSING
The durable, easy to maintain range makes
Karndean a valued choice for this sector.
Combine 19th century Victorian architecture
with a former university, a pioneer for physical
education and a famous English explorer of
Antarctica and the popularity of the Lansdowne
Villa’s suddenly becomes clear.
Originally built in the 1880’s and forming a key
part of the De Montfort University for the best
part of the last century, the rich history of the
18 detached Victorian mansion houses has
attracted a wealth of interest since being
acquired by developers, Storey Homes.
The sympathetic and contemporary
redevelopment of these magnificent buildings
has been hotly pursued by purchasers, who are
able to choose their interior finishes from a
carefully selected range of products, from the
finest of manufacturers.
For the floor coverings, Storey Homes looked
no further than Karndean for superior quality
luxury design flooring that would complement
the sweeping hallways and traditional Victorian
architecture.
Karndean’s premium Art Select range is
specifically designed for the most aesthetically
demanding of projects. Perfectly replicating the
beauty, geometry and craftsmanship of real
hand-worked timber with bevelled edges and
authentic graining and knot detail for a truly
authentic finish.

FLOOR CARE GUIDE
POST INSTALLATION
• Do not walk on the floor until the adhesive has
completely dried – a recommendation of 12 hours.
• Remove all loose debris from the floor by using a
soft sweeping brush or dust mop.
• Ensure that all traces of adhesive are removed from
the surface by spot cleaning with the recommended
Karndean Basic Stripper.
• Use a damp mop with the recommended Karndean
Routine Cleaner, (dilute as applicable) or a PH
neutral cleaner and leave to dry.
ROUTINE CARE & MAINTENANCE
General care and maintenance of your floor could
not be easier:
• Remove all loose debris from the floor by using a
soft sweeping brush or dust mop and post “Wet
Floor” signs (use at least two to indicate the area
being cleaned).
• Use a damp mop with the recommended Karndean
Routine Cleaner.
• Only use propriety floor cleaning products. DO NOT
use bleach based products or washing up liquid.
• Stubborn stains may be removed by spot cleaning
with the recommended Karndean Routine Cleaner
or Basic Stripper.
• Attend to spillages immediately.
• Liberally apply the cleaning solution over a
manageable area using a clean mop, then rinse off
the cleaning solution and leave to dry.
• Thoroughly clean the mop with cold running water.
• Once the floor is completely dry remove “Wet Floor”
signs.
• Karndean Routine Cleaner can be used with
automatic cleaning appliances (eg. scrubbing
machines).
Do not use household cleaners on the floor for
general cleaning unless they are specified for floors
as they can often leave an oily residue which could
make the floor slippery and lead to potential slip
hazards.
RESTORING YOUR FLOOR
Over time and in high traffic areas, dulling may occur.
To refresh your floor to its initial beauty and
appearance follow these easy steps:
39
• Remove all loose debris from the floor by using a
soft sweeping brush or dust mop and post “Wet
Floor” signs (use at least two to indicate the area
being cleaned).
• Mix Karndean Basic Stripper with clean water in
accordance with the label instructions on the
container.
• Apply stripping solution to the floor using a mop,
working in an area no larger than 5m x 5m at a
time.
• Allow the solution to remain on the floor for
approximately 10 minutes. (Do not allow the
solution to dry on the floor).
• Scrub the floor using a mop or a white scrubbing
pad fitted to the end of an applicator.
• Remove all residue with a mop and rinse the
flooring using clean water.
• If heavy build-up of residue is present repeat
application process.
• After the floor has dried, check that all stripper
residue has been removed by running your hand
across the floor.
• All equipment should be cleaned in cold water and
stored safely.
• Apply undiluted Karndean Refresh Hard Sealer in a
thin, even coat using a clean lint free mop (where
possible avoid strong sunlight and draughts during
application of Refresh and if installed ensure all
underfloor heating is switched off before
commencing work).
• Working from the furthest corner from the exit and
where possible parallel from the exit and parallel to
the main light source (eg. window) apply the sealer
using over tapping strokes until the whole floor is
coated.
• Allow the floor to dry for approximately 30 minutes
(wait for the sealer to go dry to the touch, then allow
a further 15 minute waiting period).
• Apply a second coat of sealer to the floor, working
in the opposite direction and where possible,
perpendicular to the main light source (eg. window).
• Allow the floor to dry for at least six hours or
preferably overnight.
• Thoroughly clean the mop with cold running water.
• Once the floor is completely dry remove “Wet Floor”
signs.
To ensure the floor remains protected from marks
and fine scratches, the Refresh Hard Sealer
protective layer will need to be re-applied
approximately every six months
(depending on foot traffic levels).
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Scuff marks
Cause: Friction from foot traffic across the floor
surface.
Solution: The floor should be thoroughly cleaned
using Basic Stripper, and Refresh Hard Sealer
reapplied if appropriate. This process should be
repeated every six months, or as the volume of traffic
dictates.
Slippery floor
Cause: Greasy residues on the floor / detergent
residue – use of unsuitable or over concentrated
maintenance products.
Solution: Remove residue with absorbent paper then
thoroughly clean the floor with diluted Routine
Cleaner, repeat if necessary.
Scratching
Cause: Excessive grit or dirt on the floor.
Solution: Ensure appropriate entrance matting is
used. Karndean recommends a depth of at least two
paces from the entrance. Sweep the floor frequently
and ensure that the floor is dressed with Refresh
Hard Sealer to provide additional protection for the
floor.
Streaky appearance
Cause: Basic Stripper has not been removed properly
/ Irregular drying of Refresh Hard Sealer due to
underfloor heating, strong sunlight or draughts.
Solution: If used, remove the Refresh Hard Sealer
with Basic Stripper, then thoroughly rinse the floor
making sure all remains of Basic Stripper are
removed.
Poor appearance
Cause: Incorrect cleaning products used / Use of dirty
maintenance equipment / Refresh Hard Sealer
applied to a dirty surface.
Solution: Use only recommended cleaning products.
Use Basic Stripper to restore the floor to its original
appearance and reapply Refresh Hard Sealer if
required.
40
TIPS FOR MAINTAINING YOUR KARNDEAN FLOOR
All hard floors can be slippery when wet. Take extra
care when cleaning and ensure the floor area is
allowed to dry completely before use. During periods
of wet weather, it may be necessary to put down extra
matting to prevent water from being brought in from
outside.
• Mop up spillages as soon as possible to prevent
spots becoming stains. Use of Karndean Refresh
Hard Sealer should ensure better protection from
most substances.
• Use quality, non-rubber backed entrance mats
approximately two paces wide to protect against grit
and other substances from scratching the floor.
Ensure they are cleaned on a regular basis to
maintain their effectiveness.
• Do not allow silicone-based products, (eg. polish or
glass cleaner) to come into contact with the floor.
These can make the floor very slippery.
• Use only Karndean cleaning products. Other
products may contain agents that can damage
resilient floor surfaces.
• Do not apply thick coatings of Refresh Hard Sealer.
Two thin coats as per the instructions on the
container will be sufficient or for high traffic areas,
three coats may be necessary.
• Do not slide or drag furniture or other objects
across the floor. Use load bearing castors to protect
against indentation from heavy items.
• As with all resilient floorcoverings, prevent manmade rubber or latex material from coming into
contact with the floor. Permanent discolouration of
the floor can occur as a result.
All Karndean’s surfactants are 100% biodegradable.
